Sun Rise Over Africa

A sunrise brings hope and joy and beauty to the world all around. link

Daybreak repeats regularly and floods everything with light, making our surroundings more beautiful. Perhaps we like the way the crack of dawn makes us feel. Maybe it’s because the warmth resonates from the sun’s rays filling us with hope and gratitude and love.

Certainly it has to do with the fact that sunrises are beautiful, awe inspiring and generous;consistent, inspiring, and peaceful. What comes to your mind when thinking of sunrises?

Charitable giving can help us feel the same way. The children of the war-torn country of Uganda are in many ways most destitute. But the opportunity to lend a hand inspires us to help a child feel hope in the face of many struggles with disease, loss, poverty, and fear. 

The Ssejinja Children’s Foundation is trying to make a difference. When asked about the organization’s purpose, the founder David Ssejinja said “Even beyond primary grades, the Ssejinja Children’s Foundation is helping educate Uganda, giving the children a bright future. Education is the key to success. ”

Whatever your reasons for giving, I expect that you will likely experience these same kind of emotions at the Sunrise Over Africa fundraiser and silent auction. See below for a list of Silent Auction items.*
